4.0 out of 5 stars Deserves more exposure, July 25, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Intriguing short stories in the vein of Roald Dahl and Shirley Jackson. Perceptive, thoughtful, darkly wry, interesting but subtle twists. Only five stories, and I liked all of them: "In Camera," "Beelzebub," "Blind Bill," Charlie Ferber" and "Henry Marlborough." The endings aren't wildly satisfying but here the underplaying seems apt. I'm surprised I'd never heard of the author before -- I was reading a Mark Twain short story collection at the same time, and contrary to all expectations I liked Westall's much more.
